Sneaker News Weekly Rewind: 1/21 – 1/27

Weekly Rewind Summary 1 27

Closing out the month of January is Sneaker News Weekly Rewind, so let’s cut to the chase and get caught up in all the biggest news stories of the week. In Air Jordan news, Sneaker News showed you a sample pair of the upcoming Air Jordan VII ‘Charcoal’ while giving you some tips on how to claim the missing Air Jordan X hangtag from your recent Chicago X pick-up. A skilled artist going by the moniker A-BB dazzled the readers with his amazing Michael Jordan Series of artwork, capturing MJ and his kicks in some memorable scenes. LeBron James made some noise as we got a look at a Foamposite PE as well as a sample Mid version of the LeBron 8 ‘Flamingo’. The Kobe System seminars began, as Kobe took us through the first five levels of the Kobe System, while updates regarding the Zoom KD IV iD forced some curious, raised eyebrows. Sneaker News also showed you a quick peek at the upcoming Black History Month pack featuring a trio of Nike Bball signature models.

The first notable Quickstrike Dunk of 2012 from Nike SB came to light, as did news of an intriguing Air Jordan 1 x Nike SB collab. Nike Sportswear celebrates the 30th Anniversary of the Air Force 1 by introducing elephant print as a custom option for Nike iD. This Sunday’s Pro Bowl will feature some sick Nike representation, as we showed you the three footwear models included in the 2012 Pro Bowl Pack. Other sports with sneaker recognition are obviously the NBA and NCAA, which was headlined by Rip Hamilton’s White/Cement IVs. The celebrities had a quiet week, but Mark Wahlberg and his LeBrons made some noise towards the end, while Amare Stoudemire had to resign from his Foot Locker job in New York. Collab news included the vast previewing of the Jeremy Scott x adidas Originals collection for 2012, a sick partnership between PickYourShoes and Reebok, and the Fall 2012 Missoni x Converse capsule. Sneaker News Weekly Rewind will return in February, so close out the month the right way by keeping in tune with the authority in Sneaker News.
